Celebrate Green Blog

We recently stumbled upon FoldSomething.com, a site dedicated to the art (and fun) of origami.

With instructional videos, supply lists and forums, FoldSomething.com is a fabulous resource for learning how to turn the ordinary into extraordinary, using paper alone.

What’s so green about that?

Everything - when you use “upcycled” paper: junk mail, magazines, catalogs, scrap paper, old bills. Absolutely any piece of would-be trash can become a welcome treasure.

So how about making origami star garlands for the Solstice, gift boxes for birthdays, or little spooky skulls for Halloween giveaways?

Embellish cards, handcraft tree ornaments, create eco-funky jewelry, make toys for the tots.

The possibilities are truly endless….

And many patterns are easy enough for even the youngest of the bunch.

Happy folding!
